the PMW25x folder of your PC*MILER installation. Use these workbooks as a
starting point, and then further customize each workbook for your own needs.

When you open one of these files, the first thing you’ll see is an introduction to
PC*MILER|Spreadsheets with instructions for setup. To go to the sample
function applications, click on any other tab in the workbook. Instructions are
under the spreadsheet in each tab. Any cell that displays “#NAME?” can be
activated to reveal the formula in the cell, just double-click it and press .
To copy a formula to other cells in the column, select the cell containing the
formula and place the cursor over the lower right corner so that it turns into a +,
then drag down. Each workbook also contains an Overview tab, listing the
available function names and their definitions.
HINT: Make a backup copy of each sample workbook before making any
changes to preserve the file’s original contents, layout and formatting.
